About Your Teacher:



Hi! I'm Adarsh Williams and I've been practicing Ashtanga since 1998. After living in Mysore for the better part of 3 years, I received Ashtanga Authorization directly from Pattabhi Jois, and was upgraded to Level 2 by Sharath Jois in 2009. I've had many wonderful mentors and students along the way that have motivated me to keep improving in my teaching.



In this video, we practice a mix of 1st and 2nd Series Ashtanga that is user-friendly enough of a beginner, but offers the challenge that we love from the practice.

About Your Teacher:



Hi! I'm Adarsh Williams and I've been engaged in the Wellness field for over 25 years. During that time, I’ve learned a lot about the best practices related to yoga, stretching, and mobility. I love to share this insight with others!



In this video, we practice Active Isolated Stretching, an effective technique where you only hold the stretch for 2 seconds. These short duration stretches allow for maximum length in the muscle without triggering the protective stretch reflex.

Enjoy!

Kata is a Japanese word meaning “form”. 



Usually, we hear the word Kata in reference to the choreographed movements within a martial art form such as Karate. When I was studying Shiatsu, we learned a specific Kata for the treatment of clients. 



Kata is a Way of Doing, rather than rote repetition. This is an important distinction because Kata gives a Foundation that more easily lends itself to adaptation and spontaneity. 



In the yoga world, we have a similar idea of organized form within the Vinyasa Krama method. 



In Vinyasa Krama, each Asana has a set number of Breath-Coordinated Movements leading to the State of the Asana and back to the beginning. 



For example, a Sun Salutation A Series has an “assigned” Vinyasa number of 9, meaning there are 9 breath-coordinated movements in the “A” Series. From there, each Asana Sequence follows a Specific number of Vinyasa.
